A Stewart Chistmas Morning

Happy CHRISTMAS DAY!!!

first photo. Mom and Dad and a smichen of the beautiful tree. it took nearly half a dozen pictures before Dad finally smiled for this one.

me and my new blanket. i told Mom that I wanted this fleece gingham for a new blanket. she made it even better by adding some owl flannel to the ends!! i contained my screaming with thanks yous.
(obviously not my best hair morning)

art supplies, i can never get enough!~
good thing about having 2 cameras, i take pictures of Mom and Mom takes pictures of me and Dad. everyone's photographed!

my sister Stephanie sewed this church bag for my Mom. Mom was surprised, i was jealous. its so cute and my sister has such great talent. good job Steph!

took Dad a while to understand most of his gifts, so smiles are rare, but i have a feeling that he'll put his new "toys" to good use.

Mom had the least number of presents (Dad and I tied), so she got to open the ones for "Grandma and Grandpa Stewart" aka "Mom and Dad." her necklace is a new one from Dad, she asked for a long one and that's what she got, but it's really pretty too!

Mom's camera was having malfunctions (seen in my bad hair picture), after getting his glasses and doing some tinkering, Dad was able to fix it and snapped this cute photo of Mom.

at first Dad wasn't sure about these wrenches from my brother Karl and then he realized what they were and a giant grin grew across his face, i think this might have been his most favorite gift, i haven't seen him smile so much in a while. good job Karl!

if you know me, you know i love owls. this Christmas i received a owl jewelry stand, an owl calendar, an owl journal, an owl mug, 2 owl dish towels, an owl necklace with my name on it, an owl necklace that doubles as a clock, a blanket with owls on it, and an owl figurine.

'O,O' <"Merry Christmas! hoot!"
